Let's Go Green with Aisling O'Rourke
Monday, 27 January 2025 - 48 minutes
This week on Let’s Go Green with Aisling O’Rourke on Midlands 103, we’re focusing on Ireland’s response to environmental challenges, from extreme weather to invasive species.
Caroline O’Doherty, Environment Correspondent for the Irish Independent, joins me to discuss Ireland’s readiness to handle significant weather events in light of the recent Storm Eowyn. We’ll examine what needs to be done to protect communities and infrastructure as these events become more frequent.
Dr. Anthea Lacchia shares insights from her investigative work with TheJournal.ie, uncovering the financial burden invasive species place on county councils across Ireland. We’ll discuss the scale of the problem and the need for urgent action to mitigate its impact.
